Today, Jecca went to Camberwell to retrieve one of her bags at Willy's cousin's house. They had stored it for Jecca so she'd have less to carry on her walk in Cornwall. She had a big day with about 8 miles of walking. She went to the Tate Modern, then to Zedel's in Piccadilly area.
Mark and Barbara walked down to the river by the Tower thinking to take the Uber boat. But, it was very crowded and we decided against it and went back to get the 15 bus. That was a mile already which is not easy on a sprained knee.
Around Charing Cross we got a snack at Itsu, a fast-food Japanese restaurant which was pretty good. From there - to the Portrait Gallery where we focused on the Tudors and the contemporary. People think a portrait gallery would be boring, but they would be wrong. This one is so well done and does not mince words or exhibits about the harm of the British Empire. The portraits include many activists.
We got tea in the cafe there as we had plenty of time.
Then, we walked to Zedel Brasserie which is an art deco restaurant and bar. Jecca, and Clare and Chris Aucterlonie met us there for a very nice meal.
Jecca and Clare had not met since they were young children. Conversation was lively and we all had a nice time.
